14 Weeks!

Well, I'm 14 weeks today! Can't believe I can say in less than 6 months there will be a little Bogert added to the mix! We are enjoying me being in the second trimester, feeling much better and enjoying the remainder of the summer!

According to our book, things that are happening with the baby at 14 weeks are...

 

The baby can now squint, frown, grimace, pee, and suck his/her thumb!

Baby Bogert's facial muscles are getting a workout as his tiny features form one expression after another.


Baby Bogert is now about (head to bottom)  3 1/2 inches — about the size of a lemon — and he weighs 1 1/2 ounces.

Baby Bogert's liver starts making bile this week — a sign that it's doing its job right — and his spleen starts helping in the production of red blood cells.

Though Mom can't feel his tiny punches and kicks yet, he/she is kicking and punching up a storm!

I can't wait to feel the kicks, and I know Matt can't wait to feel them either!
 
In about a month, we will find out if the little Bogert is a boy or girl!
 
Guesses so far:
 
Mom (Bre): 99% sure it is a girl. Just an intuition!
 
Dad (Matt): 75% sure it's a boy 25% sure it's a girl (he says he is more and more convinced by the day that I am carrying a girl because of dreams, old wives tails etc))
 
We can't wait to know, and start painting! :)
